Lash of the West

Short-lived kids' series found Lash La Rue, as his U.S. Marshal alter-ego, sitting in his office recounting tales of the old west involving his grandfather. These tales were represented by extracts from La Rue's western movies made after WWII for Ron Ormond and Western Adventures, Inc., the precursor of Howco Productions, who also made this show. As the series episodes lasted only 15 minutes, the material from each movie stretched over several episodes, giving the series a serial-like quality. The series aired on ABC on Sunday night at 6:30 p.m Eastern time from January 4, 1953 to April 26, 1953.

This production, originally released in 1953, has captivated audiences with its unique storytelling. As a Scripted series, it brings a fresh perspective to the Western, Drama genre, maintaining a strong viewer rating of 5.0 across its 1 season.
